Hu Yi patted Thousand Faces on the shoulder a few times and walked out of the basement.

After smilingly seeing him off, Thousand Faces returned to Chen Ming’s side.

With Hu Yi gone and the Prison of Entropy completely unlocked around them.

Chen Ming immediately feigned ignorance and asked the recently returned Thousand Faces, ”Who was that guy? What just happened?”

”Hu Yi, a very strong Psychic, some historical issues have been dealt with, no need to worry.”

”But you seemed to have a great conversation, cooperating perhaps?”

”Not really cooperation, just ensuring he won’t mess with us.”

With a bit of reluctance, Thousand Faces briefly explained to Chen Ming and then got up again to continue the tasks interrupted by Hu Yi’s arrival.

After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Thousand Faces finally finished the tasks and took Chen Ming on a Shuttle Boat to the city.

And brazenly found a luxurious hotel and booked two single rooms.

Thousand Faces handed the room card to Chen Ming and then disappeared; no one knew where he went.

Although Chen Ming tried to throw Iron Atoms at him, it was unfortunately ineffective.

Because Iron Atoms wouldn’t stick to Thousand Faces.

Even if the Iron Atoms under Chen Ming’s control showed no Spiritual Energy Fluctuation, he couldn’t risk exposing them to a Psychic with temporarily unknown ability limits.

Therefore, Chen Ming’s chance to leave Iron Atoms was only on Thousand Faces’ clothing.

Iron Atoms on clothing were unreliable; changing clothes would result in loss.

Moreover, Thousand Faces had a habit of regularly switching to a new handsome face, Chen Ming had seen it several times.

Thousand Faces would change into a new outfit once he switched faces.

Additionally, during the transfer of Black Mist spiritual energy, it must be primarily guided by the Psychic’s will.

Iron Atoms attached by Chen Ming definitely weren’t recognized as part of Thousand Faces and would be left behind.

Tracking Thousand Faces was practically impossible.

The only constant was that his left hand was missing a little finger.

Chen Ming shook his head, pulling his thoughts away from Thousand Faces to the present.

At least the hotel rooms Thousand Faces booked were decent.

From the window, one could see a large park in front of the neighboring Colony Government’s main office and a larger area occupied by local government departments, with nice scenery.

Perhaps due to recent circumstances in the neighboring Cai Mo Star Realm, the security forces arranged in this Star System Government’s area were quite formidable.

Formidable to the point of being almost overly strong.

However, given the special situation, having such security strength in Red Ink’s system near Cai Mo Star Realm seemed fairly reasonable.

Chen Ming withdrew his gaze from the window.

Thousand Faces had mentioned that it would take time to enter the Cai Mo Star Realm, so he could wander and relax for a while.

In the coming two days, Chen Ming could indeed unwind a bit; one of his goals in controlling An Wuping was to accomplish this.

But this wasn’t the top priority.

He had more pressing matters to attend to.

He wasn’t really here for a leisurely trip; he needed to find a way to confirm the exact location of the individual infected by the dimension through Zuo Jing.

Before using Black Mist to hide his conversation with another person, Thousand Faces had said that Zuo Jing’s contact was nearing the final stage and needed a place to stay.

Although the specific location was unknown, it must be hidden somewhere within Cai Mo’s territory.

It’s definitely linked to Thousand Faces.

However, Chen Ming’s contact with Zuo Jing was still limited, making it highly challenging to obtain clues from here, especially now that Thousand Faces had already fled.

The investigation had to start with straightforward methods, to see if he could directly find where Zuo Jing’s contact would go.

Chen Ming took out the terminal at the Fourteenth Legion’s branch’s decoy but didn’t contact the director immediately; instead, he sensed the position of the cloaked figure he had previously marked.

The figure hadn’t changed clothes, only boarding a spaceship, with no other movements for now.

Analyzing the spacecraft model and flight schedule showed this ship’s destination wasn’t Cai Mo or any place related to the incident.

Chen Ming decided not to focus further on this cloaked figure.

After confirming there was nothing else, Chen Ming dialed the director’s number.

”Chen Ming?”

”It’s me. I want to know what’s been happening these days? The information from the Fifth Legion was firsthand but too mixed and disorganized; I’d like a compiled version.”

”Hmm... That’s challenging. Just look at the documents directly.”

The director transmitted the recent work documents to Chen Ming.

”Simply put, Wu An provided a report a few days ago: Zuo Jing’s dimension infection creation was aimed at enhancing a Psychic.”

”The source of the dimensional infection, in a certain sense, is a living person rather than a cloning body reduced to flesh.”

Chen Ming, shocked after confirming with an instigator whose disguised identity was discovered earlier, said, ”Seriously? Such a thing?”

”Yes, so tracking the dimensional infection created by Zuo Jing became even more difficult.”

The Star Systems already inspected can no longer be considered inspected; they all need to be reset and checked anew.”

”I initially planned to inform you after you check the remaining highly suspected areas tomorrow, but since you asked earlier, it makes no difference now.”
